After waiting for an apology that did not materialised, at last Ong Tee Keat is suing KDSB boss Tiong King Sing for half a billion ringgit for claiming that he (Tiong) had donated RM10 million to Tee Keat for MCA's activities. Tee Keat had denied that the so-called contribution took place and gave Tiong one week to withdraw his claims or he will sue for defamation.
If Tiong is found guilty and Tee Keat awarded the damages to the tune of half a billion ringgit, many groups will benefit from this suit as Tee Keat already committed to donate the money to charity and education purposes if he wins the suit. Hmmm... all those looking forward for a slice of the half a billion ringgit should holds prayers service for Tee Keat so that he can win the case and distribute the award money to the people.
On the other hand, if Tiong wants to show one upmanship against Ong and seek public goodwill, maybe he should also declare that if he manage to overturn the suit by Tee Keat, he will also be allocating RM1 billion to be contributed to all the Chinese schools in the country in annual instalments until 2050. Considering the value of the PKFZ contract and probable claims and income until year 2050, it should not be a difficult task.
The only question is, in the eyes of the public who is the better bet to win the case and who the public will believe to be more truthful and trustworthy in taking care of the community needs without expecting any favours in return.
Can the schools and welfare organizations submit their application for their share now since the donation will be coming from the same source! - Loka
